Abstract:

We will consider a class of groups defined by their action on Cantor space and use the invariant of finiteness properties to find among these groups an infinite family of quasi-isometry classes of finitely presented simple groups.

This is a joint work with Stefan Witzel and Matthew C. B. Zaremsky.
